It's the summer of 1979, some where in South St. Louis, and an old man, played by Charly Kelly, is helping his granddaughter with a school project.  Despite his increasing forgetfulness, he dictates the events of his life on a tape recorder.  As he talks, he can’t help intertwining his life memories with those his favorite baseball team, the St. Louis Browns.  His life’s ups and downs mirror the record and adventures of this one time St. Louis team.  This one-man play is a tour de force for a single actor, as it deals with life, aging, baseball, being a die-hard fan of a losing team, and the loss precious memories.
